1. The county agency of the county where the applicant or recipient is living must be responsible for the administration of the program with respect to that applicant or recipient.

2. When a recipient moves from one county to another, the county agency in the outgoing county will:

   1. Complete the process of establishing eligibility on new cases prior to shipment. If the case cannot be completed because of a pending functional assessment, complete the case as much as possible before forwarding to the county social service board.
   2. Update and process ongoing cases for the month before transferring the case file. The outgoing case file must include a copy of the functional assessment(s) for the case manager in the receiving county. Another functional assessment is not required unless there has been a change in the recipient’s functioning abilities.

3. Update the Resident Payment System including the recipient's new address and the receiving county.

4. Send notification to the recipient of the change in the county.

5. The new facility will receive any payment from the resident that was not obligated at the previous basic care facility. The basic care facility may bill for the first day of entry to their facility but not the date of discharge.
